Everybody outside of Houston-proper gets the shaft.

So in a referendum, the will of the majority of people in a densely populated urban area outvotes those on the more sparsely populated fringe. So what else is new?

I was defrauded of my vote and disenfranched from participating in the bond due to ballot theft at the Post Office.

Proof?
No, of course not.
Just another baseless accusation from a malcontent who's disgruntled by the outcome of the referendum.

No Willie. They rigged the election date to correspond with the City of Houston's mayoral election. As a result the percent of registered voters who participated in Houston was TWICE that of unincorporated Harris County (where over a MILLION people live - hardly "sparse" by any measure). Had they held it on an election day that was common between both the city and the county turnout would've been the same and the narrowly adopted bond would've failed.

Proof?

It's all in the records of the Harris County Clerk's Office. USDOJ's voting rights division also probably has a log of the complaint I placed with them by phone.
